Robbie Williams is set to become godfather to presenter Jonathan Wilkes' baby son, who was born this morning.

Wilkes announced earlier today that wife Nikki had given birth to a baby boy, who would be named Mickey. The baby weighed 7lb 15oz.

"Nikki and Mickey are doing great. He was born this morning at 7.20am and I fainted at 7.21am," Wilkes joked. "We are both so happy and can't wait to get our new family back home."

Speaking about his choice of godfather for his son, the former 'You've Been Framed' presenter said: "Rob was the first to know about the baby and of course he's going to be godfather. He's my best mate."
